This is a very thorough guide, which I've purchased as a companion to the "Eye Witness" guide to Prague. This "Rough" guide is particularly well written, in greater detail than most guides--anything but rough. Highly intelligent and informed, it's meant for the serious traveler who likes to dig deep. The appendix covering Prague/Czech history is concise but remarkably revealing. This guide will definitely enhance my third trip to Prague.

I bought this version, and a friend I met up with had the more condensed one. We used the smaller one most of the time. Something that sucked about these books was the fact that a few of the places seemed to be in the wrong spot on a couple maps. Nothing big, but sometimes a place would be across the street, or two places supposedly next door to each other would be across the road. A pretty good book, but the smaller one will likely be just as useful. The restaurant and pub reviews were good. If I were to do things over, I'd get another pocket-sized map as well, mark where I wanted to go, then leave this book in the hotel.

this is a history of prague and everything in it, with a bit of information about traveling there. i would not call it a guide book or anything that is really going to help you in travel planning.

This guide to PragueThe Rough Guide to Prague 7 (Rough Guide Travel Guides)is complete and helpful to preparing my trip to this city.
